The first teaser trailer for “Ice Cream Man,” the next horror film from director Eli Roth, has been released. The slasher will be released on Aug. 7 in 2,000 North American venues.

The film is set in the idyllic summer town of Bayleen Bay, which descends into madness when an ice cream man serves kids from his truck with horrifying results.

The 30-second teaser showcases a group of children descending into madness: Looming over sleeping parents, making snow angels in a pool of blood, and holding down a woman as one of them takes a bat to her stomach, while the slogan “I scream. You scream. We all scream for Ice Cream Man” flashes across the screen.

“Ice Cream Man” stars Ari Millen (“Orphan Black”) as the titular deliverer of sweet treats, along with Benjamin Byron Davis (“Guardians of the Galaxy 3”), Dylan Hawco (“Heartland”), Kiori Mirza Waldman, Charlie Zeltzer (“The Handmaid’s Tale”) and Sarah Abbott (Netflix’s “The Body”). Karen Cliche, Shiloh O’Reilly and Charlie Storey, who were in Roth’s prior slasher “Thanksgiving,” also appear in “Ice Cream Man.”

“Ice Cream Man” is Roth’s first film under The Horror Section’s banner, following the company’s launch in March 2025. Roth will also produce and co-write the script for “Ice Cream Man” with his long-time collaborator Noah Belson.

Snoop Dogg will contribute original music to the film. Rap icon Nas will serve as executive producer through The Horror Section’s new strategic partnership with his Mass Appeal outfit.
